Article source: Borrmeister Architects The characterful Durham Street Townhouses sit proudly about a shared courtyard punctuated with private walkways, dramatic pergolas, and bold roof forms. Around this central space the proportions and arrangement of the buildings work together to create a village-like atmosphere, while oiled cedar walls and slatted screens combine with the careful composition of glazed openings to provide privacy to each unit.

Each free standing unit features a private outdoor space connected to the interior of the home by a generous double height void with extensive glazed facades. These dramatic north facing spaces allow natural sunlight to warm the central living and private mezzanine through the year. All together the intriguing forms and effective layout of these units are an excellent example of inner city living.
